• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Swiggles is going turbo!!!

Lol it'll happen eventually. If the intercooler actually sells this time it might happen sooner than later
 


Picked up my TC at bills today, almost missed the house, didn't recognize it without all the trees lol.

Wrapped my dp when I got home. I'll have to wait until Tuesday before I can start putting everything in the car now.

And if my IC and cam are purchased like they are supposed to be next week then I will be ordering the other aem gauges.

My favourite feature of the AEM gauges is the auto dim. Has a light sensor on it so it will always be perfectly visible.
 
That's awesome I didn't know that! I like that its a controller and gauge all in one, and I don't need some box that doesn't match anything else.
 
I didn't notice until one day I watched it as some shadows passed over it from the trees on the side of the road.

Only wish aeroforce adopted a similar system.
 


Yeah doggie on the lack of trees huh? Although the W body at the edge of the sidewalk should have been a give away.

I know which bluid will be finished first. :th_biggrin2:
 
Lol yes it did.

Boost gauge came sooner than I expected. Has some cracks on the ring but I'll likely sand it down and repaint it.

It's been a fast car before... for at least 5 minutes of each build. :th_biggrin2: Sorry Brian..had to .. Jason made me.
 
I have always loved your ride. Clean as Mr. Clean's dome! Love the route you are going too. When I seen the list on the OP I was like oh my. In for the final, best of wishes!


And never knew they made aluminum coolant elbows!
 
made some progress this morning. Motor is in, that was ***** with the oil filter neck on and the trans kinda sagging to the pass side of the car. Before that I mounted the vac block and cut out the fender area for the IC pipes to fit though. Taking a short brake now to smoke a j so i can concentrate on the rest later.

Clmon..you shouldn't fight the oil filter adapter etc. You've always had that on when doing an engine.

I used my big prybar on mine.. It wanted to fight and I said.. F U pry!
 


Lol you still have some parts I need so ya yours will probably e running before me.

Bill I usually leave the oil neck off when putting it back. Don't worry I uses the big pry and won :D
 
This isn't a real race. it's er uh.. like the special olympics.

Now If I jumped in and mentioned the car outside that's still in 100 pieces.. or more. I might kick both their butts.
